The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Chapter 4: The Mistress of the House, Handing Over the Household

Princess Lao Zhan, who was about to get angry, froze her anger on her face when she saw Shen Qinglan coming, and she seemed a little embarrassed.

Then he glared at Huo Junyu, then he coughed lightly and looked at Shen Qinglan gently and said:

"Qing Lan is here..."

Huo Junyu was glared at by the old Princess Zhan. He curled his lips and said nothing.

Shen Qinglan's phoenix eyes glanced at everyone present, and she saw the woman in a moon-white dress, with a beautiful face, like a lotus emerging from water.

Xie Wanying...

She is the daughter of an old friend of Princess Zhan. Because her family fell into poverty, Princess Zhan felt sorry for her and took her back, raising her by her side since she was a child.

It can be said that in Prince Zhan’s Mansion, Xie Wanying is considered half Miss Huo.

In her previous life, she had not paid much attention to Prince Zhan's Mansion. She only knew that after Shen Qingli eloped with someone, Xie Wanying moved in and became the mistress of Prince Zhan's Mansion.

Not only does she manage all the affairs in Prince Zhan's mansion, she also treats the three children in the mansion as her own, doting on them to the utmost, almost like their own mother!

Outsiders all praised her for being virtuous and grateful.

Even when Prince Zhan died of illness and his palace fell into decline, and she married another man, no one said a word to her.

Such people are either extremely kind and know how to repay kindness, or extremely evil and are good at wearing masks.

Retracting his gaze, Shen Qinglan bowed again to the old Princess Zhan and said with a smile:

"Mother, please don't be angry. Yu'er is young and ignorant. Who knew that by saying this, he would tarnish Miss Xie's reputation for nothing?"

When Huo Junyu heard this, he could no longer sit still. He stood up and said with his neck stiff:

"You're talking nonsense! How did I tarnish Sister Xie's reputation? You're obviously jealous that we like Sister Xie!"

Shen Qinglan didn't get angry when he heard this, he just smiled and said:

"Miss Xie is gentle and kind, and naturally she is likable. However, Miss Xie is still unmarried, and if people hear about it, gossip will inevitably spread, which will not only humiliate Miss Xie's reputation, but also bring shame to King Zhan..."

"What does this have to do with my father? Are you exaggerating?"

When Huo Junyu heard Shen Qinglan mention the War King, although he didn't believe it, there was obviously a hint of fear in his tone.

Obviously, this kid blindly worships the War King, so he cannot bear to see the War King's reputation damaged.

A filial child can still be saved.

"The War King is now married to me, so he is a married man. You put Miss Xie together with a married man. What do you think others will think?"

Shen Qinglan's words were not harsh, but when Huo Junyu heard this, his face became more serious and solemn.

What would other people think? They would definitely think that Sister Xie and her father were doing something secretly!

No, no, this will really damage my father's reputation as the God of War!

When Huo Junyu thought of this, he immediately wanted to say something, but he was too embarrassed to admit that Shen Qinglan was right. He could only puff out his cheeks and hold his anger inwardly.

Seeing this, Xie Wanying rubbed Huo Junyu's head with pity, then smiled and said to Shen Qinglan in a gentle voice:

"Sister Shen, please don't be angry with Brother Yu. Brother Ting and I have been childhood sweethearts. We are not siblings, but we are more like siblings. Everyone in our family knows this. Brother Yu only made this joke because he is close to me, but..."

"This kind of joke is just said among family members. It will never spread outside, so Sister Shen doesn't need to worry."

Shen Qinglan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. With just one sentence, he attributed Huo Junyu's words to a joke. This was also a hint to everyone that they were the only ones present...

It was obvious that the old Princess Zhan would not go out and gossip about her own son, and Xie Wanying would not throw dirty water on her head. As for Huo Junyu, she cared about the reputation of the King Zhan, so she would not go out and say nonsense. Then...

If this matter really got out, who would be blamed if not her, the new bride?

Maybe they have already thought of the reason. Maybe she, as the new bride, is jealous and is deliberately throwing dirty water on others?

Otherwise, how could Shen Qingli have such a miserable end in her previous life? With Shen Qingli's level, I'm afraid she can't match Xie Wanying.

but……

"Miss Xie, what you said is wrong. From the small, we can see the big. This is like nature, and habit becomes nature. It may be a small thing at home, but if you don't change it when you are young, it may lead to a big mistake when you grow up."

Shen Qinglan shook her head slightly, then looked at the silent old Princess Zhan, bowed respectfully, and continued:

"A gentleman's conduct is to cultivate oneself in tranquility and to cultivate virtue in frugality. Without being indifferent, one cannot clarify his ambitions; without being tranquil, one cannot achieve far-reaching goals... What do you think, mother?"

"What nonsense are you talking about...I..."

Huo Junyu frowned, obviously not understanding, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the old Princess Zhan:

"Shut up!"

After scolding Huo Junyu, Princess Zhan stood up, walked to Shen Qinglan, and held Shen Qinglan's hand. Her eyes were full of satisfaction as she looked at Shen Qinglan.

Princess Lao Zhan gently patted the back of Shen Qinglan's hand and said with some regret:

"In the past, Ting'er was always away on the battlefields and rarely came home, so naturally he didn't do much to educate the three children."

"Plus, the mother of these three children had already passed away. When they were brought back to the palace, they were as thin as bamboo poles. The old War King and I felt so distressed that we indulged them a little..."

"These children have grown up without any idea of ​​their own limitations. You are right. We can see the big picture from the small. I cannot ruin these children in vain!"

"Fortunately, now that you have entered the family, you are their mother. I can rest assured that the heavy responsibility of educating the children is in your hands."

Shen Qinglan understood what the old Princess Zhan said, but she said with a look of panic: "Mother, this is probably inappropriate..."

"What's wrong?"

When Princess Zhan heard this, her face immediately turned stern.

Then he glared at Huo Junyu who was looking astonished, and in front of Huo Junyu and Xie Wanying, he took out a key and stuffed it into Shen Qinglan's arms.

Huo Junyu and Xie Wanying's faces changed after seeing the key! They looked at the old Princess Zhan in disbelief!

But the old Princess Zhan ignored them and continued to speak softly:

"Since you have married Yu Ting'er, you are the mistress of the Zhan Palace. It is only a matter of time before you take charge of the household affairs."

"After the old War King passed away, I was a little overwhelmed. From now on, I will leave all the affairs of this palace to you, and I will rest assured!"

Shen Qinglan took the key and saw a hint of sadness and nostalgia in the eyes of the old Princess Zhan, and knew that what the other party said was true.

It is said that the old Prince Zhan and his wife Princess Zhan have a deep love for each other. Even when the old Prince Zhan was seriously ill, Princess Zhan still took care of him.

Now that the old King Zhan has just passed away, how could the old Princess Zhan feel good?

Immediately, Shen Qinglan bowed to the old Princess Zhan and said respectfully:

"In this case, my daughter-in-law will definitely fulfill her mission and do her best to take care of Prince Zhan's mansion and the three children."

Seeing that Shen Qinglan took the key without hesitation, the old Princess Zhan liked Shen Qinglan more and more the more she looked at her.

Glancing at Huo Junyu's wrinkled face, Princess Zhan couldn't help but join in the fun and asked with interest:

"How are you going to punish Yu Ge'er for what he said just now?"

Huo Junyu was immediately furious, staring at the old Princess Zhan with wide eyes in disbelief, wailing, trying to regain the love of the old Princess Zhan:

"grandmother??"
